How to copy an EDGE from a Wire Body (or any BODY or FACE) such that is independent?

I'd like to understand how to copy and EDGE from a Wire Body (or a BODY or FACE) such that it can be used independenly in other functions.  I;ve tried using api_copy_entity on the EDGE but this carries along some parent information so that it can't be used like an ordinary edge created via a api_curve_line, etc.

Have you tried api_deep_down_copy_entity....

http://doc.spatial.com/qref/ACIS/html/group__ACISENTITYOPS.html#g9b4738cef3dccf3a1d2999167d6b5bf5 . I think this is what you are looking for.
